Hi! I did not want to make a new thread regarding this but i've searched and never found a good answer.
I've bought a Zenphone 2 from China, and as i understand the hardware is exactly the same as in the European/American versions.
Unfortunately, the Chinese version don't have Google apps such as Play Store, Google Maps and so on.
I have successfully rooted my device using this guide; http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/root-newbie-root-instructions-zenfone-2-t3114063
Now - what do i do?
Can i install new firmware, from ASUS? I found this: Version CUCC_2.20.40.104
https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/HelpDesk_Download/
This is for "ZE551ML", but i have "Z00ADB" will it still work?
If this wont do it, can i install a ROM? Is there anyone who knows what the latest stable ROM is for Zenfone 2 that will work on my chinese so that i can use Google Apps?
I don't want to do anything that can make my phone go into bootloop or breaking it and that is why i had to ask you guys...
Thank you so much in advance.. // New Zenfone 2 user
First Z00A is the ZE551 and I'd you want play store you should install the WW software, a tutorial is posted in this thread, change from CN to WW software it gives fill instructions on the procedure.

Hi. Those versions are only available through the updater app if you have China dev or global dev ROM installed. Your device will come with global stable probably and to experience miui 9 and android 7 you will have to flash twrp and flash the dev ROM or use MiFlash with the fastboot method.

If it's from gearbest i think it will come with global stable.
About the unlocked bootloader , i don't think so , but there are tutorials to flash roms without unlocking the bootloader if you wanna hurry flashing . The best is to unlock it officially and proceed after with flashing.
MIUI 9 - v7.10.19 - China Developer Rom .. That's the final rom they have released (until now) that I downloaded..
Probably it comes with GApps and Chinese 'bloatware' (I would throw them away with Titanium backup, no problem).
Does this have some problems?? Anyone installed this specific version yet?

Hi! If you refer to the post above you , yea , i've tested the china developer rom. It does not have gapps and has chinese xiaomi apps that can be uninstalled.
If you guys want to try the china developer rom , you can download the latest version from xiaomi.eu , it's based on it and has gapps. Also , it is optimised for a smoother experience and no bloatware.
UPDATED: Official Android Pie (9) is now available for the WW variant.
Do you want the update? Read on!
You can download from here (~1,88 GB): https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE620KL/UL-ASUS_X00QD-ASUS-16.0610.1812.58-1.1.15-user.zip
You must be on WW 15.0619.1810.73 or Android Pie Beta in order to update! If you're on a different ROM, you may brick your phone!
Update method A:
Download the file - linked above
Put it on your phone to "Internal Storage" (root of Internal Storage, don't put it into folders like Download/DCIM/Android, whatver...)
Restart phone (Power button > Restart)
After restart, you'll get a notification, that a new software is available. Yes, install it. Wait until it's complete and you're done!
Update method B:
Download the file - linked above
Put it on your phone's SD card (this only works if you have an sd card in your phone - obviously)
Turn off phone
Hold down Volume Up and Power buttons for a couple of seconds (until the ASUS logo appears)
Choose "Apply update from SD card", choose the zip file and do the update
Reboot after done (or wipe data/cache if you want)
...or you can also use ADB to sideload the file, but I won't detail it now (unless requested).
About Pie notes
Camer is same as before.
Digital Wellbeing app isn't compatible with the device.
New gesture based navigation is working, new dark theme is available in ASUS theme app, new animations are also working.
Thank you for this information. The first method worked well with me.

Careful with that one. It says "TW SKU only", so it might not work/have issues with WW versions or CN versions.

Were you on WW 15.0619.1810.73? Because if you were on a version ending "1810.67", then the update fails.
What is the error message?

That's the stable version released today for the Taiwanese SKU
There was a new release from Asus official website featuring the Android Pie (WW_16_0610_1812_58) like three days ago. It was featured in Asus PH and Taiwan, although I checked that two only. Although, it is unavailable since yesterday until now.
Is it safe to update this?
Ive already updated android pie with this "WW_ZE620KL-15.0619.1810.73-16.0610.1812.52-12051038-fota-user.zip" but it has many bugs. Can I update it again using this new update? Is it safe? Pls reply. If it is ok. Thanks

I updated from that one too without any issues, so it should be safe.
Is it safe to downgrade from android pie to android oreo?

The update can't be found on Asus official website any longer, this would mean something, wouldn't it? In any case, it wasn't WW version, so it isn't good for European Zenfones. Am I wrong?

I just got confused because at that time I was accessing several different Asus Website (Taiwan, India, Brazil, USA, Philippines).
Although, I was able to implement the update from
version _52 to version _58. And my SKU is WW.
But I really think I got it from Asus Philippines' official website. ?
Currently, on the Asus Taiwan official website is the only one with the software update is available when I last checked.

Hello, is it possible to flash the China rom to a global rom device without rooting?
If yes, where I can get this China rom?
And:
Will the China rom work with the EU Providers? (In my case its Germany)
Thanks for your answers.
Best Regards
Dennis

Because I heared on the cn rom are more software features implemented.
Because face unlock and root without breaking fingerprint reader with the China ROM. I just tried installing Black Magic 5G on my global 12/256, and it's currently stuck in TWRP, won't flash anything correctly, won't boot, I'm assuming it's a global ROM issue, I'm trying to figure out how to flash the China ROM so I can start over and try Black Magic 5G again to see if that improves my results, so far I can't even get it to flash.
But if anyone wants it, I found a mega link to the latest China ROM that's suppose to be flashable through the factory recovery or TWRP. I haven't been able to get it working in TWRP, but if anyone wants to upload a TWRP backup of stock 12/256 global ROM so I can revert back to factory recovery and try flashing the China ROM that way, would be appreciated.

china rom will work on any region device.
Android 11 version of all 5G/S roms are universally able to flash.
you need to flash through system / local update, and you need to use the full rom zip.
...
features of China rom.
--China rom is bloated heavily with chinese apps that wont work in other regions due to needing a Nubia account ( which can only be made using a Chinese registered Phone number)
--these apps can be frozen / disabled.
there is no gapps / playstore. you need to install playstore seperately and then install the various google apps you use.
--stock rom you cannot change the launcher without doing some little tweaks.
-- NFC does NOT function in China rom, if you use NFC or want to use NFC, you will have to return to Global.
you do not need to root, or unlocked your device to change regions. just make sure you're locally updated to android 11, and install the region rom you wish through the system menu.
Hi all, anybody knows what is the difference between 2061 and 2063, is it worth updating to 2061 when it is 2063

UPD. Found that 2063 is 2061EU, updated last, everything perfect
Need more informations about the two
I am in the same situation.
Got my RMX2063 device not long and i purchased the International Version.
Is there a way to check what is flashed at the moment on it? International or EU OS?
Curently it is saying RMX2063_A_35
Is the RMX2061EU better?
Have not found any clear information about the two, so can someone come with some good informations?
I found out that Realme Flash Tool works great to flash stock ROM or downgrade to previous versions. it can flash zip, ozip and gsi file formats for OS.
From little search on web, it seems like each firmware version was made for particular region. This means particular things will work better with firmware made for your particular area. So why to risk spoiling things by installing firmware made for another region?
I am trying to flash EU Firmware https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/RMX2061EU_11_OTA_0380_all_EIeguy5zqMib.ozip on RMX2061
Currently, my device is RMX2061_11_A.41
Have anyone tried this?

Hi. It's been a long time since I did this.)
But, I remember exactly, that when version RMX2063 was indicated on the phone - I manually updated it with version RMX2061EU - then all following updates were stable over the air.
The update file was taken from this site (https://www.realme.com/eu/support/software-update) of the European region. Unfortunately, as of now, it does not seem to be up to date, but you can still try to install the version from this site, and after installing it, request an update over the air. There is a chance that the OTA update will start working.
If it helps, I saw another site (https://realmefirmware.com/realme-firmware-update/#google_vignette) with different versions, but I didn’t try to figure needed version out. Maybe it could be useful.
Good luck!
